sweethearts + twitter = tweethearts
Sweethearts might be the original micro-messager, doling out lovey-dovey phrases short enough to fit on one of their pastel-colored, chalky-tasting candy hearts. This year, the company adds "Tweet Me" to their repertoire of little love notes.
It's nice to see that even a company that has been around for a century and a half can find inspiration in, erm, @gremanda.
